Japanese Natto Fermented Soybean, Freeze-Dried Natto Beans, Japanese Probiotic and Prebiotic Superfood - Vitamin K, Low Sodium, Non-GMO, Vegan, Made in Japan 70g(2.4oz)

These are really different from what I was expecting but still pleasing. Products like this used to be a lot denser and required a bit more chewing. The way these are freeze dried makes them like tiny slightly dense puffed rice. Flavor is spot on for natto, maybe a bit mild. So if you are looking for the super funky natto flavor, you probably need to stick with fresh/frozen, but if you just want a reminder in a quick dry stock handful, this is your ticket!

This was the first natto I tried, and I thought it was thoroughly disgusting in ways that defy description in the English language. But, no choice; I'm taking it for the mk7 because I have abnormal, extremely early onset osteoporosis, and I'm under orders to get all the "bone" vitamins from food sources on top of the mountainous piles of supplements I'm also taking. So I landed on just grabbing a couple handfuls straight out of the bag and chomping on it dry just to get it down every day. Now, while that description might sound like it wouldn't quite warrant this five-star review... hear me out. Because I recently purchased a different brand of batto that was larger, for a better price. Natto is natto, right? NATTO SO FAST. When the new bag arrived, I performed my now-usual osteoporotic self-flagellative routine and grabbed a handful, popped it in my mouth, started chewing, and.... gagged it right back out. It was... it was... I can't even describe how it was. Ick. ICK. How can natto, which is already indescribably bad, be made indescribably worse?? However that is, the cheaper natto brand figured out how to do it. I can only speculate, such as wondering if they perhaps fermented THEIR natto in cat urine in an effort to improve the taste, but the attempt sadly backfired and made a bad thing worse. Downside: Wasted money on that other natto, and natto ain't cheap. Upside: Made THIS brand of natto taste like carnival cotton candy by comparison and I'm sorry I wasn't appropriately appreciative before. I've left the other bag of natto sitting next to it on the counter so every time I grab this one, I'm reminded to be grateful as I choke it down.

Small small bag for the price. But due to the high vitamin K, I am willing to try it. It’s freeze dried so I will be trying a few beans a day just as is. They are crunchy and have a good nutty flavor. Maybe I’ll try dehydrating also to see which way I like it better.

Significantly smaller than I was expecting for the price, only slightly larger than my hand and even rehydrated gave very little. Was hoping to find a way to store bulk natto but for the price it is not worth it at all. You can buy fresh/frozen natto at any Asian store for less than a third of the price. Taste was okay, not great compared to regular natto, but that’s to be expected for something freeze dried. Would be worth the purchase if the price wasn’t so exhorbitant.

Very easy to prepare, and it has a very mild taste, almost like no taste at all.
